Dalton turned the ball over 4 times.

We had PLENTY of opportunities to run the ball.  Dalton's turnovers were bad, but they could have been avoided.

This whole "rotating possessions" crap is not only dumb, it is LAZY.  It speaks volumes about who Canales is as a head coach that he can't even make the effort to figure out when to use one or the other in a strategic way.

Yep

Buffalo was giving up 5.8 yards a carry this season.

They gave up 6.8 yards a carry to Dowdle in this game but instead of giving it to him 20 plus times we only ran him 8 and decided to give it to Chuba for 12 carries and 2.8 yards a pop.

Thus we faced alot of 3 and long and Andy being a statue he is could not get out of the way of the pressure.

I’ll get killed for this but he always sounded gay to me. Not necessarily not gay, but feminine.  I tried to say it in a more subtle way and still got killed for it last year. fug it I don’t care it’s an honest opinion. I didn’t let that disqualify him and have been very patient and non critical. I just wondered how the big tough guys in the locker room would respond to that. 

But whatever, I think he thinks too much from the emotional side. The rah rah positive deal, what must it sound like if he gets mad? Where is the tough hard ass side? The no empathy, get the job done or get gone. I wonder about that. It mean I doubt there is a lot of fear of failure going on. 
 

So anyway to other comments about he sucks and all that, I said I needed a better reason to change my stance on him, which has been give him time. Continuity is super important. 
This thing with the running backs is eroding the goodwill.

I see we played the 31st rush D and Rico had 8 carries…..which tells me so much.  Hope all the folks who randomly were calling Canales a good playcaller/HC the other week reconsider such.

 

I will say.... I think the one thing most of the huddle has agreed on is that DC is a terrible coach. I haven't really seen anyone defend him and rightfully so

This is so much cope. Know damn well Andy Dalton was stinking it up. We were down by 3 scores playing catch up the rest of the game. Stop commenting when you didnt watch the game. Go find a new team. If BY was playing this would have been a super negative thread about BY.

    • Time to hit 4000 yards and 30 TDs (including rushing). I don't care about INTs anymore. That's a big part of the problem. He plays uber conservative until the game is on the line. Playing not to lose, instead of playing to win. Time to let it friggin rip from the get. The team can win with a pick or 2 if he has 3-4 TDs. Stop playing scared.  But to be fair, his WRs have not been great. You all can bash about 1st round picks and O-line cap all you want.  Chuba as your #1 RB his entire career.  Adam Thielen as your best WR for 2 of 3 seasons is ridiculous. Then a rookie as your best in the 3rd season. Legette is not a 1st round talent. Probably closer to a 4th if you compare him to Brazzel this year. Coker has been a walking injury report. Nothing else to really speak of at WR or TE. Jimmy Horn has potential, but he is not an NFL starter yet. Oline has been better as run blockers than pass blockers. Ickey has always been so-so as a pass blocking LT. Center has been a revolving door for 3 years. Damien Lewis has been as marketed. Hunt is a great run blocker but an ok pass blocker - when healthy. Moton has been solid at RT. Biggest problem with the oline has been depth. When someone went down, their replacement became a glaring weakness. Overall a good but not great unit the last 2 years. 2023 was a ish show. Nothing else to say.  Not one game breaker, take it to the house offensive weapon since DJ Moore. Hopefully we get a little of that from Brazzell.  Either way, in his 4th season, it doesn't matter. You have to be able to overcome whatever comes your way. First 3 seasons with a young supporting cast is defendable. Can't use that anymore though. 3rd year in the offense. 3rd year with the same HC.   
    • Highest amount of OL salary cap in the league too. The Chiefs are behind us at 2 but we are ahead of them by a cool $23 million. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/position/offensive-line/_/year/2026/table/active/sort/cap_total
    • I dont recall that happening to a qb but my memory has been crap the past few years
